#2 in the series. Coincidence?
From The Gothamist:
A patient seeking care at the pediatric emergency room at St. Luke’s-Roosevelt Hospital Center last night described an ordeal that allegedly began with eye-rolling and cat-calling, and culminated in these two nurses seemingly browsing for shoes online for around 20 minutes while a toddler with a violent cough sat untreated. “The boy’s mother said they had been there for five hours,” says Sean Walsh, a sophomore at Columbia who witnessed the encounter. “She asked what was wrong and a nurse pulled up the kid’s file and said, ‘Oh, we’ve made an error, that shouldn’t have happened.’ The mother ended up walking out of the ER with her child after that.”
